Interior problem
2001 Volkswagen Golf 4 cyl 50000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
The rear windscreen washer is leaking behind the trim on the rear door. I think it is probably just a loose connection in the tubing. How do i remove the interior trim from the rear door? There do not appear to be any screws or catches to undo.

Hi there,

If you can not see any attach screws, then the trim is secured with blind locking pins, these will be around the edge of the trim, to remove you will have to get under the edge of the trim and carefully pry the trim free, go easy as the trim can easily be damaged, there are special tools for doing this, it may be a good idea to visit a trimmer to have the panel removed, and you will be able to re install easily by just pushing in the trim and locating the locking pins in there holes.
